  Gregory: Jail and Hunger Strike to Continue Over Brown Cover-up
  Civil Rights activist Dick Gregory spent Christmas day in a=20
Washington, D.C. jail and is currently on
  a hunger strike to protest the military's cover-up of Ron Brown's=20
death.=20
  Gregory was arrested by D.C. police on Wednesday, Christmas Eve,=20
when he and a group of 100
  community leaders had a protest and prayer vigil outside the=20
Washington offices of the Armed Forces
  Institute of Pathology.
  At the gathering, Gregory was joined by one-time Martin Luther King=20
aide and former D.C.
  Congressional delegate Rev. Walter Fauntroy and WRC radio talk host=20
Joe Madison. Madison also
  serves on the national board of the NAACP.
  "We are not dreaming this up," Gregory told the crowd, "This is not=20
about a conspiracy," he said,
  asking why evidence of a possible gunshot found on Brown head after=20
the plane crashed was not
  properly investigated.=20
  Two lieutenant colonels, both armed forces medical examiners, said=20
that a perfectly circular hole
  found at the top of Brown's head looked like it was created by a=20
gunshot and both believed an
  autopsy should have been conducted on Brown. None was.=20
  The AFIP has admitted the first X-ray of Brown's head showed=20
possible fragments from a bullet in

  but all of these head X-rays have vanished from Brown's case file.=20
  Stating he wanted the AFIP and its head Col. Michael Dickerson to=20
"tell the truth," Gregory declared
  the area a "crime scene", placed yellow police tape on the building=20
and sat down in the middle of the
  street. He was summarily arrested and booked for blocking traffic at=20
D.C.'s 4th precinct.
  A government prosecutor offered to allow Gregory to skip jail by=20
placing a $25 bail. Gregory refused
  by remaining silent during the proceedings. The judge asked the=20
baffled prosecutor "Don't you know
  about the controversy about Ron Brown?" The judge offered to release=20
Gregory if he would simply
  nod his head or smile to indicate that he would return for a=20
hearing. Gregory stood silent. He was
  ordered to the D.C. jail on D Street and continues on a hunger=20
strike. He is not expected to be
  released until Monday.=20
  "Dick Gregory speaks for millions of Americans who want to know the=20
truth of Ron Brown, and why
  evidence of a possible homicide of Secretary Brown was first ignored=20
and later destroyed," radio host
  Joe Madison said. Madison spoke to Gregory in jail.=20
  "On Friday afternoon I will discuss on my radio show the details of=20
this cover-up, and the
  indignation I feel and many others at the military's response to our=20
concerns, and the odd response
  from the White House and Bill Clinton," Madison said.=20
  "Why would the White House Press Secretary take such a defensive=20
posture as he did at a recent
  White House press briefing? No one has accused the President of=20
